Interval 20.0 to 63.0

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 Weeks

Post treatment endoscopic appearance, as measured by a validated endoscopy score - the EoE Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS). This score measures endoscopic severity with a set of five endoscopic findings (exudates, rings, edema, furrows, and strictures), and ranges from 0-9, with higher scores indicating higher endoscopic severity.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 Weeks

Post treatment symptoms, as measured by a validated dysphagia symptom score, the EoE Symptom Activity Index (EEsAI). This score ranges from 0-100, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms. A score of \< 20 indicates clinical remission.
